“You very much feel like a number on a list, just like a piece to move around the board, and not like a human with your own thoughts, feelings, plans.”

“There’s like dissonance between what you want to do and what you feel is right versus what the environment requires...”

Happy to share that our commentary (with amazing @drharikeerthan), was published y’day in the @MedEd_Journal by @asmeofficial. Since then, we’ve been receiving deeply personal messages—from neuroatypical superspecialists who had to drop out mid-course 1/

Epistemic injustice... being autistic means one’s credibility and capacity to relate an accurate account of one’s own experience is often questioned. How can I be a doctor if I am autistic? Conversely, how can I be autistic if I am a doctor?

I was so delighted to be part of the @rcpsychNDPSIG conference and hear from so many interesting speakers before and during it. Here is a snapshot of some of them and not least @SEDSConnective patron Dr Eccles Chair of NDPSIG who I felt did the most amazing plenary speech.
@BendyBrain B Erin, @Autistic_Doc, B Sutton, Dr Evison, Dr Kinnear @PerinatalBirder and more.

Really exceptional talk from @benerinerin (@BSMSMedSchool) at @rcpsychNDPSIG this afternoon, exploring his research (with @BendyBrain) on why neurodivergent people may be more creative

@MullerSedgwick @BendyBrain @SamuelJTromans @SanaHashmi5 @rcpsychDPSIG @rcpsychNY @SussexUni @BSMSMedSchool @UniOfSurrey @PerinatalBirder @Autistic_Doc Ben Erin sharing a refreshing perspective on Neurodivergence and Creativity. Researching on this fascinating theme ‘with’ neurodivergent people and how these learnings help us understand NDV in different contexts.

@BendyBrain Wowed by @PerinatalBirder speaking the TRUTH about perinatal challenges for women with autism and ADHD. Why are clinicians so reluctant to allow patient autonomy? #NDPSIG2024
